No, telepathy-haze is just another Telepathy Connection Manager. Read the text you just shared: Haze: A connection manager based on Pidgin's libpurple, supporting all protocols in Pidgin (AIM, ICQ, Yahoo, MSN, etc) at a basic level, but already very usable. libpurple uses GConf's system proxy set

@Brian No, proxy support works on gabble only for certain kinds of configurations. For example a global HTTP proxy doesn't work. See comment #118. haze is *not* a libpurple implementation, and telepathy *does have* control over that. And what do you mean "can't allow popups for password questions

@papukaija But that's the problem; GNOME guys don't want to implement HTTP Connect in GIO, and libproxy guys interpret gnome-network- properties wrongly. So in reality HTTP Connect is not supported at all, nor is it planned to any time soon. But that's ok according to the developers, because "less

Small update. Some Telepathy CM's such as gabble (XMPP) and butterfly (MSN) now have some proxy support, however, they depend on libproxy doing the right thing (which it usually doesn't). So essentially they still don't work. A more generic solution should be implemented in GLib, however, they ar

FTR. I've been pushing Pidgin devs to implement this since a long time ago. Latest try with patch is here: http://pidgin.im/pipermail/devel/2010-January/009177.html On 2.7.0 the API seems to be there, but even if telepathy-haze utilizes it, it would only work for MSN; for other protocols you need

"Empathy" has nothing to do with proxy stuff, connection issues and so on. You need to check which specific telepathy CM you are using. That should be easy to check with 'ps -A | grep telepathy'. My guess would be that only telepathy-haze works (using GNOME's proxy settings). -- Does not use syst

First of all, GNOME never switched from Pidgin to Empathy because Pidgin has never been part of GNOME, and has never intended to. It's just a GTK+ app that has never collaborated with anyone... GNOME, freedesktop.org, etc. So, before Empathy, GNOME didn't really have an alternative. Now, I think d
